DU ‘Gha’ unit entry retake test Nov 16

The Dhaka University authorities have announced the date of the retest for admission into ‘Gha’ unit on November 16.

University authorities published the date on Friday afternoon in the official admission website www.admission.eis.du.ac.bd.

The retest, available only for those who passed it the first time, will be held from 3:00pm to 4:00pm on that date in Dhaka University campus.

Authorities decided to retake the test after a question leak scam.

Earlier on October 16, Dhaka University published the result of ‘Gha’ unit entrance exam results amid barrage of criticism, acknowledging the question paper leak before the exam was held.

The question paper was leaked minutes before the exam, students and guardians said.

The university authorities shortly after Saturday midnight filed a case under Digital Security Act against six persons and many unnamed accomplices alleging that they were involved with the leak of 72 questions of ‘Gha’ unit’s admission test.

The case was filed with the Shahbagh Police Station after six accused, all from Bogura, were arrested at the Doyel Chattar on the campus.

Many anomalies surfaced about the ‘Gha’ unit result. Anomalies were seen in pass rate of the controversial test as the tally reached its highest point in 20 years, while some of the students broke all records of the past in obtaining marks.
